A feature of these old sleeping compartments, which I always liked, were the ornate fold out wash
basins. Originally polished brass, they were eventually chromium plated at some point. In any case,
this particular example still awaits complete restoration. I love the handle near the top which
doubles as a bottle opener.

Great shot of the remarkable luxurious details which we no longer enjoy in our travel. V

This is a beautiful piece of metalwork! I personally don't remember them, but always admire old fashioned workmanship! :)
